LONDON, April 8. Wild report
that Germany and Holland are quiet
ly massing troops on the Dutch-Bel
Sian frontier, coupled with incrftllble
rumors that Germany la about to In
vade Holland, came from English
sources In The Hague, Amsterdam and
jther Dutch cities today.
London papers, for obvious reasona,
laid the greatest stress upon the re
ports. In neutral quartera It waa aald
that while public opinion In the
Netherlands hud shown greatest con
cern as a result of reported attacks
upon Dutch shipping the situation
was not such as to warrant the belief
that an open outbreak was Imminent
It was pointed out that Holland Is
almost as much Incensed owing to re
strictions upon Dutch shipping by the
British blockade of Germany aa by
aubmarlne attack upon Dutch vessels
owing to the German blockade of the
British Isles.
Reports declared that German land
strum and cavalry are being massed
on the Belgian-Dutch border. From
The Hague came reports that for the
past fortnight Dutch southern posts
near Belgium have been quietly rein
forced with men and artillery.

The high school garden plots are
fast taking on an emerald hue. The
boys of the classes Interested In the
garden work have laid a line of pipe
to the garden and an abundance of
water Is thus assured. Thanks to
the plentiful rainfall since the seedj
were planted this water has not had
to be used. Radishes can be put on
the market within two weeks, It Is
hoped and It will not be long after
that until peas will begin to come on
as they seem peculiarly adapted to
the sandy loam of the garden.
The amateur gardeners have not
had all bread and honey In the grow
ing of these gardens. There were in
sect pests to contend with, adverse
weather conditions, and last but not
least, the neighbors' dogs. Probably
the Insect that did the moat damage
waa the flea beetle which ate
the
leaves of the radishes. He waa erad- j
Icated by the use of lead arsenate
spray. Then there waa tne cutworm ;
that was killed with poisoned bran
mash, and the wire worm which has
resisted all attempt on his life.

of the garden work was the hotbed. iot by F. A. Consentlno, nn Italian

EGGS IN PICKLE HATCH

CHARLES DANIELS PROVES
TO
SKEPTICS THAT IT "CAN"
BE DONE."
Last year about this time a story
appeared in the East Oregonlan to the
effect that Charles Daniels had suc
ceeded in hatching out In an Incu
bator eggs that had been preserved In
pickle all winter. As a result Mr.
Daniels was made the butt of many
Jesting Inquiries by his skeptical
friends who Insisted that he had mixed
his eggs up so that he could not tell
which were pickled and which were
fresh. This year he determined to
make a similar experiment and to
provide against any possibility of mis
take. He selected eleven eggs from
out of his jar of pickle, marked all of
them and placed them under a hen.
Last week three of the eggs were
hatched out. The other eight were
broken open and found to be infer
tile. Had they been fertile. Mr. Dan
iels believes they, too, would have
hatched.

Race for Place on

Game Commission
. JAMF.S II. NICHOLS OF BASER
Baker had withdrawn his candidacy
for the poeltios of eastern Oregon
representative on the new fish and
game commission and had endorsed
8. D. Crowe of La Grande for that
Place. The action of Nichols leaves
only two atrong candidates in the
race, Crowe of La Grande, and Marion
Jack of this city. Enterprise and
Haines both .have candidate but
neither has any but local support.
Nichols, who Is president of the Ba
ker sportsmen's organization, divided
the sportsmen of eastern Oregon into
two factions which element was said
to have almost decided Governor
Withycombe In favor of Mr. Jack.
What the effect of his withdrawal will
have remains to be seen. -
According to local sportsmen, the
situation which now confronts the
governor is an embarrassing one. They
claim that the organized sportsmen of
eight eastern Oregon counties. Mor
row, Umatilla. Union, Wallowa, Grant.
Baker, Malheur and Harney, are ac
tively supporting Crowe and opposing
Jack. However, they recognize th
strength of the latter inasmuch as
they have received information that
nearly every member of the late sen
ate and many membrs of the house
have endorsed the local man. If this
be true, the alignment will be sharply
drawn, the sportsmen on one side
and the legislators on the other. Some
of the sportsmen profess to believe
that, rather than offend either group,
the governor will adopt another course
and appoint a man not proposed by
either. The appointment must be
made before May 21.

Tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock is
the time set for the formal organiza

Roads Association and the meeting is
being looked forward to with much in
terest. There are indications of a rep
resentative attendance from different
Portions of the county. In fact one
or two outside men are already here
for the purpose.
Under the plan of representation
agreed upon last week the generai
county-wide organization will be made
up of representatives selected one
from each town and one from each
road district in the county. Theoreti
cally these representatives will be del
egates from district organizations in
he four natural divisions of the
'county, the west end, north, east and
south. Pendleton is accorded one
representative for each of the county
divisions.
At a local good roads meeting held

NEWPORT NEWS. April 8 For
mal internment of the Eltel waa de
layed today pending the receipt of
Instructions from Washington. Ad

ima requested Instructions from the
navy. and treasury departments but
up to noon nothing had been heard.
NEWPORT NEWS, Vs.. April 8.
Commander Max Thlerlchens of the
German auxlliiary criser Prim Eltel
Friedeiich, asked the United State
government, through port authorities
here last night, to intern his ship and
erew.
Up to the last moment the German
skipper kept up the appearance of be
ing ready for a dash to the sea, and
when the time came for decision fi
nally he explained that the fail
ure of "expected relief" to arrive had
made it necessary to intern rather
than "deliver crew and ship to fruit
less and certain destruction by Brit
ish and French warships waiting off
the Virginia Capes."
Today the commerce raider will
rcake her last cruise of the war. She
will be taken to the Norfolk navyyard
across Hampton Roads from the
shipyard here, where she has been
laid since limping Into port oa
March 19 after the remarkabla. commerce-destroying
voyage from the
Orient, during which she sent the
American ship William P. Frye, to
the bottom.
Collector of Customs Hamilton
boarded the Eltel shortly after T
o'clock last night with an imperative
notice from the Washington govern
ment that the time for his stay in
this port would expire at midnight,
and that he must leave American
waters by 4 o'clock on the morning
of April 8. Before the customs collec- -tor
could deliver the message. Com
mander Thlerichens handed him the
written announcement of his decision.

tives have been chosen in most of the
towns of the county and by quite a
number of the road districts.
What action the meeting tomorrow
will take remains to be seen but It Is
the hope of the road enthusiasts' that
a plan may be adopted under which
good roads advocates in all sections
can be gotten together. In order to
carry out a program of any conse
quence It will be necessary to make
use of the county bonding law as tha
road levy for this year has already
been made and the expenditure of the
money is already provided for.
The opening- of the upper Colum
bia to navigation has given a strong
Impetus to the demand for good roads
as it is contended a hard surface road
to the Columbia can materially reduce
freight rates.
